Field Manual FM 3-0 Operations October 2022

by U.S. Army

This Army doctrinal manual, Field Manual FM 3-0 Operations October 2022, expands on the Army’s capstone doctrine for multidomain operations described in ADP 3-0. It describes how Army forces contribute landpower to the joint force and integrate joint capabilities into operations on land to achieve military objectives and fulfill policy aims. FM 3-0 focuses on large-scale combat operations and their relationship to the full range of military operations that support joint campaigning.

FM 3-0 is applicable to all members of the profession of leaders, Soldiers, and Army Civilians. The principal audience for FM 3-0 is commanders, staffs, and leaders of theater armies, corps, divisions, and brigades. This manual provides the foundation for training and Army education system curricula and future capabilities development across doctrine, organization, training, materiel, leadership and education, personnel, facilities, and policy (known as DOTMLPF-P).

Trying to rate this is like trying to rate the sun. It's entirely overwhelming. I am not the target audience, fair enough; it's occasionally interesting but mostly mind-numbingly tedious. Really not sure what I was thinking starting it.

If you want to skim, you'll need to read Chapter 1 to get a grasp of terms. The most interesting chapters were Chapter 3—Fundamentals of Operations, Chapter 7—Army Operations in Maritime, and Chapter 8—Leadership During Operations. Beware
